Four Seasons Wheel

Our second week of preschool turned into two weeks due to us all getting sick and having a holiday weekend. We studied the letter B and the number 1. S has a harder time writing letters that have circles. She is much better with straight lines.

Since fall is just around the corner, I wanted to add a four seasons wheel to go along with our daily calendar. I saw several hand made versions on pinterest, but felt they were too busy, so I made a simple one in Photoshop. I think it looks more Montessori.

Here are some of the Montessori activities we did:
1. Beach sensory bin (we go to the beach soon!)
2. Tracing shapes (I made these out of presentation board and knobs. I don’t recommend using presentation board. It was a mess and didn’t create sharp lines, but it’s good enough for now)
3. Self-mixing colors. This is a good lesson for colors, and also how plants drink water.
